November 2006
It’s hard to believe that November is here.
The color of the leaves has changed on the vines adding
depth and richness to the Dry Creek Valley. The
temps are warm, but there’s a sense that
winter’s chill is just around the corner. The
last of the grapes have finally come in – most
of it being Cabernet Sauvignon, which is traditionally
the last to ripen. Initial reports from our
winemaking team indicate that this vintage is
looking really good, even with the rain we
received in late September. Look for an in-depth
report on the 2006 harvest in a future email.
Please read on for more and
if you wish to not receive future emails from us
you may

bottom of this email (although, we sincerely
hope that’s not the case!).

"Each year, The Red Cat restaurant
in New York City prepares a
traditional Thanksgiving meal.
And Raoul Segerra, wine director,
meets the challenge of pairing wines
to the eclectic flavors of the
holiday table. His rule:
Match to the meal's centerpiece, and
everything else will follow.
'You need a fresh, juicy wine to
pair with white-meat turkey, which
can be dry,' he says."
"Segerra likes Dry Creek Vineyard
Heritage Zinfandel, 2004, a full
bodied, cherry- and plum-tinged
Sonoma County, California, red that
offers smoother tannins and more
moderate alcohol than many other Zins."

2004 Heritage Zinfandel
Sonoma County |
|
|
The
bouquet of this rich, balanced wine
shows ripe black cherry and black
currant with hints of vanilla and
black pepper. On the palate, elegant
flavors of ripe black cherry,
currant and creamy spice are
complemented with hints of dark
chocolate. Balance is key to this
wine as the flavors are well
integrated without being
overpowering.
